Perfect Fit Hires Plant Manager

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Perfect Fit Industries has named John Seawell plant manager for its Monroe, N.C. facility, which produces mattress pads, pillows and electric bedding products. He will report to senior vp of operations John Beliveau. Previously, Seawell served as plant manager and engineer with the Michelin Tire Company, where he utilized lean manufacturing tools such as Six Sigma and Value Stream Mapping. "As a good corporate citizen, we're continually looking at ways to not only run a more energy efficient operation, but also to keep as much manufacturing here in the US as we possibly can," says Beliveau. "Adding John's plant management expertise will go a long way in helping us continue to do both."
